Ingredients

• 1 pound ground pork
• 2 cups napa cabbage
• 4 stalks green onions
• 1 tablespoon ginger
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup coconut flour
• 1 cup almond flour
• 3 large egg
• 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the napa cabbage and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then squeeze out excess moisture.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped cabbage, minced green onions, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Step 3

In another bowl, combine coconut flour, almond flour, and xanthan gum. Stir together the dry ingredients, then add two beaten eggs and water. Mix until a dough forms.

Step 4

Knead the dough for about 2 minutes until smooth. If it's too sticky, add more almond flour a tablespoon at a time.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten into circles on a parchment-lined surface.

Step 6

Place a tablespoon of the pork mixture in the center of each dough circle.

Step 7

Beat the remaining egg in a small bowl. Brush the edges of each dumpling wrapper with the beaten egg.

Step 8

Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges together to seal, forming a half-moon shape.

Step 9

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the dumplings in the skillet, seam side up, and cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 3 minutes.

Step 10

Add a few tablespoons of water to the pan, cover, and steam for an additional 5 minutes until the pork is cooked through.

Step 11

Remove the lid and continue cooking until any remaining water evaporates and the bottoms are crisp again.

Step 12

Serve hot, optionally with soy or dipping sauce on the side.
